Publication number: 20230009951Abstract: Improved (e.g., high-throughput, low-noise, and/or low-artifact) X-ray Microscopy images are achieved using a deep neural network trained via an accessible workflow. The workflow involves selection of a desired improvement factor (x), which is used to automatically partition supplied data into two or more subsets for neural network training. The neural network is trained by generating reconstructed volumes for each of the subsets. The neural network can be trained to take projection images or reconstructed volumes as input and output improved projection images or improved reconstructed volumes as output, respectively. Once trained, the neural network can be applied to the training data and/or subsequent data—optionally collected at a higher throughput—to ultimately achieve improved de-noising and/or other artifact reduction in the reconstructed volume.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2021Publication date: January 12, 2023Inventors: Matthew ANDREW, Lars OMLOR, Andriy ANDREYEV, Christoph Hilmar GRAF VOM HAGEN

Patent number: 11210820Abstract: Iterative reconstruction (20) of imaging data is performed to generate a sequence of update images (22) terminating at a reconstructed image. During the iterative reconstruction, at least one of an update image and a parameter of the iterative reconstruction is adjusted using an adjustment process separate from the iterative reconstruction. In some embodiments using an edge-preserving regularization prior (26), the adjustment process (30) adjusts an edge preservation threshold to reduce gradient steepness above which edge preservation applies for later iterations compared with earlier iterations. In some embodiments, the adjustment process includes determining (36, 38) for each pixel, voxel, or region of a current update image whether its evolution prior to the current update image 22) satisfies an artifact feature criterion. A local noise suppression operation (40) is performed on the pixel, voxel, or region if the evolution satisfies the artifact feature criterion and is not performed otherwise.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2017Date of Patent: December 28, 2021Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Andriy Andreyev, Chuanyong Bai, Bin Zhang, Faguo Yang, Shekhar Dwivedi, Zhiqiang Hu

Patent number: 11158094Abstract: A nuclear medicine image reconstruction method generates a reconstructed image (44) by performing iterative image in reconstruction (30, 130) on nuclear medicine imaging data (22). The iterative image reconstruction produces a sequence of update images (34, 36, 134, 136). During the iterative image reconstruction, a standardized uptake value (SUV) transform (40) is applied to convert an update image (34, 36) to an update SUV image (42, 46). The SUV transform scales values of voxels of the update image to SUV values using scaling factors including at least a body size metric and a dose metric. During the iterative image reconstruction, at least one parameter used in an image update of the iterative image reconstruction is adjusted using the update SUV image. For example, a parameter of a prior or filter (38) incorporated into an image reconstruction update step (32) or used in filtering of an update image (36) may be adjusted.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2018Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Bin Zhang, Chuanyong Bai, Shushen Lin, Andriy Andreyev, Zhiqiang Hu

Patent number: 11069098Abstract: An imaging data set (22) comprising detected counts along lines of response (LORs) is reconstructed (24) to generate a full-volume image at a standard resolution. A region selection graphical user interface (GUI) (26) is provided via which a user-chosen region of interest (ROI) is defined in the full-volume image, and this is automatically adjusted by identifying an anatomical feature corresponding to the user-chosen ROI and adjusting the user-chosen ROI to improve alignment with that feature. A sub-set (32) of the counts of the imaging data set is selected (30) for reconstructing the ROI, and only the selected sub-set is reconstructed (34) to generate a ROI image (36) representing the ROI at a higher resolution than the standard resolution. A fraction of the sub-set of counts may be reconstructed using different reconstruction algorithms (40) to generate corresponding sample ROI images, and a reconstruction algorithm selection graphical user interface (42) employs these sample ROI images.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2017Date of Patent: July 20, 2021Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Shekhar Dwivedi, Andriy Andreyev, Chuanyong Bai, Chi-Hua Tung
